ReplyDeleteTalk about A-1 service! Do you also run a one our dry cleaner service for superheroes? I forgot or just didn't realize how many great covers Earl painted.
I forgot he did those Chartlon covers also. Love the $6 Million Dollar Man, Planet of the Apes & Dracula Lives! Thanks for delievering the goods Groovster!
Just beautiful stuff! Earl Norem is a very much under-appreciated artist - but you have sure given him his due here! Great job. I especially love that Six-Million Dollar Man cover! Thanks as well to Mike for requesting such great work.
ReplyDeleteThose are so breathtaking! I particularly like the Beneath the Planet of the Apes cover here. I'm the proud owner of a poster of Norem's art from Savage Sword #39; one of these days I'm gonna display it with the honor it deserves! You hit another one outta the park, Groovy One, thanks!
ReplyDeleteHey Groove, I was thinking: on the subject of painted Marvel covers, maybe one of these days you could take a look at the work of Bob Larkin...? That would be cool.
ReplyDeleteI'll add a look at Bob Larkin's covers to the Request Line, JJ! Look for it after Christmas!
